Default code P0171

I got the code P0171 so i changed the MAF sensor. After a day of driving i got the P0171 code again. I need a smog soon. Im thinking of failing the smog and applying for the CAP program which if i qualify i get $500 to use to repair whats wrong from a gold shield station. Just curious what might be the problem and will repairs cost me more than $500. Thanks

P0171 - Bank 1 Lean.

Check for vacuum leaks on bank 1. If its good, only thing left is oxygen sensor.
